Two or Three? That is what the Tampa Bay Bucs have to ask. Two or three. Do they follow the latest NFL trend and decide to keep just two quarterbacks on their roster or three.

That decision affects Rudy Carpenter.

Carpenter was grabbed off of Dallas’ practice squad a couple of years ago. He hasn’t played in an NFL game but he has developed a good relationship with Josh Freeman and Josh Johnson to form a solid quarterback room. But with teams now able to play 46 players on game day and have abolished the third-quarterback rule, there may not be a need for a third-string quarterback.

If the Bucs keep two, they could use Micheal Spurlock as the emergency quarterback. Spurlock was a quarterback at Ole Miss.

“I know [with] a lot of people the new wave is going to go with maybe two,” said Tampa Bay coach Raheem Morris. “Just some of those things that — Rudy has done a nice job for us and I am going to let him go out there and battle (for) it. Kind of play that way. Play for that and let us make those hard decisions [and] tough decision [on] how we got to do it. We have to go see.”
